Lunch will be some roast chicken slices and 150g of cucumber split down the middle with around 60g of peanut butter, I now use...

    Insulin pen needle use T1 following low carb

    He uses the same treatment regime as me, split basal (levemir) and then one each time he eats (humulin s or another regular insulin) then a rapid if needed for corrections. I need a shot when I wake up middle of the night as my dp starts kicking in around 4ish. Then as I wake up I have another...

    Insulin pen needle use T1 following low carb

    a good friend of mine from twitter, in fact the person who introduced to me low carb and dr Bernstein’s approach about 10 months ago, so I have a lot to thank him for. He has been now told by his medical insurance they will restrict his insulin pen needles to a certain amount and think he’s is...

    Lidl rolls

    Can one of the moderators get a mass signing going by posting the link to the petion and boosting it in the forum somehow. I’ve shared this loads and still only got around 1400. There must be loads of others who eat these. Just a thought, power in numbers. They did say it was a supply issue...

    Which # (hashtags) to use for Lidl and protein rolls

    My efforts, slightly exaggerated with the millions. But it could be... haha!! Give it a good whack when the panic first started weeks back. Loads where tweeting Lidl then too, they still are now.

    Type 1 diabetic

    I found dr Bernstein’s approach very helpful, it’s a bit strict but I had a tough time getting a decent hba1c and I’ve been diabetic almost 19 years now. It’s turned mine around no end. Even if you don’t want to follow it to the letter as your still quite young and have a lot of new experiences...

    Nutrition and cycling

    Totally agree, I do a lot of trail riding. Red and black routes so very tough climbs. As well as lots of nice downs as a reward. I used to take jelly babies, lucozade and a full on packed lunch. We are out all day and in the middle of nowhere. Now I find my omelette in the morning with and extra...

    Cost of LCHF/keto?

    I am on the strictest budget I’ve ever had in my life. I’m am low carb and can honestly say it’s a lot cheaper than the way I was eating before. The fact I can’t just grab a meal deal now and pack my own lunch which takes minutes saves me around £15 a week straight off. Same as evening meals...
